A few pieces of the typical Ligurian savoury focaccia

Qualche pezzettino della tipica focaccia salata della Liguria

A few pieces of the typical Ligurian savory focaccia.
What's more delicious than a few pieces of focaccia, still warm, bought in the bakery downstairs for breakfast?
For many Ligurians, probably nothing! More than a croissant or brioche... here breakfast is made with focaccia and cappuccino and, strictly speaking, we dip the fugassa in the cappuccino!
Try it and believe it!

Here you can find my recipe for focaccia all’olio alla genovese that I used to prepare this delight.
Do you like Ligurian focaccia, perhaps dipped in cappuccino?

The Genoese focaccia, with its well-defined alveoli, stands out because before the final leavening it is brushed with an emulsion made of extra virgin olive oil, water and coarse salt.

Pezzetti di focaccia fatta a casa

Alcuni pezzetti di focaccia ligure fatta in casa da me.
Uno dei cibi più buoni della mia Liguria è sicuramente la focaccia all’olio (focaccia genovese).
Durante il lock-down ho cominciato a prepararla e cuocerla a casa ed il risultato non era per niente male(come potete vedere dalle foto!).
Sottile, croccante e molto salata, come piace a me!

La focaccia genovese pronta da gustare

La focaccia pronta da gustare

La focaccia genovese è una cosa che manca a tutti quando siamo lontani dalla Liguria.
Recentemente l’ho anche fatta a casa ma il risultato, per quanto non così male, era decisamente lontano da quella del panificio.
Che fare? Comperarla, come faccio io. Da noi ci sono molti panifici e in quasi tutti il livello è molto alto!

Questa nelle foto è quella, probabilmente attualmente la migliore di Sestri, del Panificio Vassallo!

In ancient times, the Phoenicians and Greeks used cereal flours such as barley and rye that were mixed with water and cooked over a fire. This allowed them to be preserved for long periods of time. The focaccia was considered by the Romans to be such a valuable food that it was offered to the gods during their celebrations.

Genoese focaccia (in Ligurian a fugässa) is a typical specialty of Ligurian cuisine: approximately one centimeter high, golden/amber in color and with well-marked alveoli, it stands out because before the final leavening it is brushed with an emulsion made of extra virgin olive oil, water and coarse salt.

La focaccia all’olio della Liguria

Focaccia all'olio

La focaccia all’olio della Liguria.
Uno dei cibi più buoni della mia Liguria è la focaccia all’olio.
Non a caso ci sono già diverse foto di questa prelibatezza.

Questa volta è la focaccia di uno dei panifici “storici” di Sestri Levante: Vassallo (che purtroppo non ha un sito, una pagina Fb o TripAdvisor). Quante serate della mia giovinezza iniziate in Piscina dei Castelli sono finite davanti ad un pezzo di focaccia appena uscita dal forno.

It can be eaten for breakfast, as a “fast breaker” in the morning or as an aperitif-appetizer. It is traditionally accompanied with a small glass of white wine (or gianchetto in Ligurian). It is customary (not typically Genoese) to dip the focaccia in cappuccino or milk for breakfast.

Genoese focaccia, a slice at the bar

Genoese focaccia, a slice at the bar.
Genoese focaccia is the quintessential Ligurian dish.
This photo was taken in the bar in front of my house where a nice cabaret of focaccia slices are ready to be “grabbed” and “dunked” in cappuccino.
The quintessential Ligurian breakfast and the best way to start a Saturday morning.

Focaccia genovese, trancio al bar

Focaccia, as I have already written in several posts, is the one with oil; very simple (even if you can find it in thousands of local variations: with olives, rosemary, tomatoes and so on and so forth) the one I like! And here I leave you my recipe.

A little piece of focaccia? Great for breakfast

A little piece of focaccia? Great for breakfast.
As I have already said and written, there is no Genoese breakfast that does not include a little piece of focaccia all'olio.
I already have a nice photo (here) of the focaccia but when I saw this cabaret of focaccia at the bar I couldn't help but take a photo!

Focaccia Genovese: the typical Ligurian food

focaccia all'olio

Focaccia all’olio genovese: typical Ligurian food.
The typical dish par excellence of Liguria: focaccia all’olio (fugassa).
If you go into a bar for breakfast here you can find all types of warm croissants but, above all, it: focaccia. The taste of cappuccino combined with the saltiness of the focaccia is incredibly good.
A tip for tourists: it is good almost everywhere but the best in Sestri, for me, was Tosi’s at the end of the straight alley of Sestri Levante which unfortunately no longer exists.

Tell me which one is the best in your opinion?
